Izzy princess and 24 week belly

Fancy

This is Izzy's latest art creation.  I don't think Martha Stewart has anything on our decorating skills.

Northwest Trek

This past Saturday we went to Northwest Trek which is a wildlife park with native Washington state animals.  It seemed to take FOREVER to get there and it was a little rainy and cold (surprise, surprise) but very fun.  Izzy always likes to see animals and this park had a tram ride which looked a little like a train so she really liked that.  The best part was when we got to the wolverine cage.  There were two young male wolverines going CRAZY - running in circles, jumping up on the glass, acting like they were possessed.  Izzy thought they were hilarious!  She stood up outside the glass and every time they came near she would squeal and laugh like it was the funniest thing she had ever seen.  We found out a few minutes later that it was dinner time and that is why they were acting so funny.  Stay tuned for more pics of my belly - it's getting ridiculous.  

ps - the second pic is just a cute one of Izzy working her Dora puzzle

Ok - where is the spring ?!

I know Spring is coming because I have daffodils trying to bloom in my front yard but this is the fifth snow we have had in the past 2 weeks!  What the heck?  Luckily it doesn't really stick and Friday we actually had sun and 54 degree "heat wave".  

20 week belly

Here's a picture of my 20 week belly.  It's an awkward shot because I had to do it myself in the bathroom because I kept forgetting to ask Jimmy.  I'll get a better one next time.  I feel like my belly is twice as big this week and I still have 18 weeks to go - yikes!  Izzy is helping me rub lotion on my skin so hopefully I won't just explode.

It's a GIRL!!!!

Hooray!  We would have loved a boy as well but we are especially excited to have another little girl!  The rest of the ultrasound was perfectly normal and we even got to see a little of her face and hands in 3D.  The hard part now is picking a name - so far we haven't agreed on anything.

Cute stuff

I'm stealing this idea from Erin because I don't have anything else exciting to write about :) Here are some of the cute things Izzy says now:
